Carex stricta
$11.95
The narrow grassy semi-evergreen leaves of long-beaked sedge gradually spread into large fine-textured clumps. Plants are punctuated in spring by relatively large nodding spikelets of green flowers that mature to tan seeds with prominent grain-like beaks. This refined sedge is a great fit for most shade garden situations and styes.
